As someone who has the occasional Big Mac and last week had a Whopper for the first time in years, this Guardian piece about the advert vs reality of both burgers came as no surprise to me at all. The Big Mac really is pathetic these days.

I'm reminded of that scene in Falling Down Whammyburger

Big Macs are tiny now I feel, at the moment I prefer the Whooper more but I only in the last year had a Whooper for the first time so I don't know how they stack up to past version of it.
